After playing lacrosse all through high school and being one of the original founders of the program at UCI, I have also coached at the high school level.

In my freshman year at Morehouse College, I started the school?s first lacrosse club team and at the time, only the third HBCU lacrosse team - we traveled to 8 states and played over 20 different colleges. After graduating college, I continued to develop myself skills and understanding of the game, by competing on a men's teams in Houston, Tx.

I am qualified to help athletes with their lacrosse skills based on my experience as a player in high school and college, as well as my experience as a middle school and high school coach. As a player, I have played every position on the field, although I spent most of my time playing as a goalkeeper in high school and as a midfielder in college. As a coach, I worked as an assistant as well as a head coach of several lacrosse teams, and was responsible for teaching players lacrosse skills and tactics, as well as emphasizing physical fitness and good sportsmanship.
